Last Updated: September 30th, 2024

Woodbridge Technologies, Inc. dba Preside (“Preside”) utilizes cookies and similar technologies for such features as providing basic website functionality, storing preferences, seeing how our services are used and offering a tailored experience. [This Cookie Policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy.] If you have any questions or concerns about the Cookie Policy or its implementation, please contact us at josh@usepreside.com or as otherwise described in our Privacy Policy].

What are Cookies & Similar Technologies?

  • Cookies are text files that websites store on a visitor’s device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser for the purpose of helping you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, enabling functionality, helping us understand activity and patterns, and facilitating online advertising.
  • Local storage technologies, like HTML5, provide cookie-equivalent functionality but can store larger amounts of data, including on your device outside of your browser in connection with specific applications.
  • Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, are used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked.

Collectively we refer to these technologies as “cookies”.

How do We Use Cookies?

We, our service providers, and our advertising partners use cookies to automatically log information about an individual’s interactions with our services and communications, such as:

  • Device information, such as computer or mobile device operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, RAM and disk size, CPU usage, device type (e.g., phone, tablet), IP address, unique identifiers (including identifiers used for advertising purposes), language settings, mobile device carrier, radio/network information (e.g., WiFi, LTE, 3G), and general location information such as city, state, or geographic area.
  • Online activity information, such as pages or screens viewed, how long individuals spend on a page or screen, the website they visited before browsing to our website, navigation paths between pages or screens, information about activity on a page or screen, access times and duration of access, and whether individuals open our marketing emails or click links within them.

We use both persistent cookies and session cookies. Persistent cookies stay on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them, while session cookies are deleted once you close your web browser. We use persistent cookies, for example, to record your choice of language and country location. The cookies placed through your use of our website are either set by us (first-party cookies) or by a third party at our request (third-party cookies).

Cookie Types & Descriptions

  • Necessary. These cookies are necessary for you to interact with basic website features. Also, necessary cookies are used to maintain the website's security features.
  • Visitor Preferences. These cookies help us remember your actions so your site experience is tailored to your unique needs. This is how the site remembers items you viewed recently and makes certain interactions faster, like search. These cookies are also needed to preserve your preferences.
  • Analytics. These cookies send data to Preside for the purpose of analyzing customer behavior so we can learn from your interactions to improve site experience for everyone. For instance, this data helps us better understand how users are finding information and which areas of the site are most helpful. This way we can evaluate site performance and functionality to continuously develop, customize, and improve our services and offerings. [Specifically, we use Google Analytics to collect information about how users use our services, which we then use to compile reports that disclose trends without identifying individual visitors and help us improve our services.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.]

We may also use web beacons in promotional emails and other communications with you, to allow us to count how many people read them and to verify any clicks through to links within an email. We (or our marketing service providers on our behalf) use this to help us understand how an email campaign performed, what types of emails and content our recipients find interesting, and what actions our recipients took, so we can improve our email campaigns in the future and make our emails more relevant to our recipients. If you do not wish the web beacon to be downloaded onto your device, you should select to receive emails from us in plain text rather than HTML.  

In the below table, you can find details on cookies used by Preside including name, description, third party provider (where applicable), and duration.

Advertising Cookie Providers

Google (Advertising Services)

We utilize Google’s ad platforms—specifically Product Listing Ads, Adwords, Search Engine Ads, and Ad Serving. Google's web beacons are used on Preside properties to help personalize ads, optimize campaign performance in order to reduce costs, and to produce anonymous metrics and analytics, including conversion statistics related to ad campaigns. They accomplish this by using the beacons to limit the number of times you see an advertisement, to understand products you may be interested in, and to understand how effective a particular ad is in driving a user to make a purchase. The data they collect and cookies they may set are subject to their privacy policy and can be viewed here: https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can change your preferences about the adverts you see on Google by clicking here: www.google.com/settings/ads
